Paradise Found: Mirissa Beach - Sri Lanka
Following breakfast, we kindly request that you proceed with the checkout process from the hotel to continue your journey towards Mirissa, where you will enjoy your beach stay. Mirissa is a renowned coastal town situated in the Southern province of Sri Lanka, which is highly regarded for its stunning beaches and a plethora of attractions.
Upon arrival, take a moment to bask in the invigorating sea air while taking in the breathtaking view of the golden sandy beaches that stretch along the coastline. Our chosen hotels for your stay in Mirissa are the luxurious Marriott, W15, Paradise Beach Club, and many more, all of which are located on the beachfront.
Upon checking into your selected hotel, you will be treated to a sumptuous dinner, and you will spend the night enjoying the comforts and facilities of the hotel. We highly recommend indulging in the various activities available, including surfing, whale watching, and soaking up the sun on the beach.
Mirissa and its breathtaking sandy beach pretty much transforms your dreams and visions of a tropical paradise into an everyday reality. Located close to the Southern tip of the Island of Sri Lanka and only about 200 km from the Equator, this secluded crescent shaped beach is the perfect place to sit back, relax and forget about all the hustle and bustle of your other life that’s a million miles away.
This small sandy tropical beach boasts some of Sri Lanka’s best and most stunning sunsets and sunrises. All the Guest Houses in Mirissa are set back from the actual beach giving you the impression that you are on a deserted palm fringed island. Every now and again the silence is broken by the sound of a coconut falling on the sand or a chilled beer being opened by someone further up the beach.
Also, the Continental Shelf (where the deep sea starts) is located very close to the shoreline of Mirissa. Hence it is the perfect spot for one of Mirissa’s key attractions: Whale and Dolphin watching, during the months of December to April.
A great surfing area, Mirissa is perfect for riding the waves and taking turns. Beginners and experienced surfers can enjoy and experience surfing in the Sri Lankan waters; Mirissa beach is famous as a surf spot in the Indian Ocean.
Overall, your beach stay in Mirissa promises to be an unforgettable experience, offering you the perfect blend of relaxation, comfort, and adventure.

 "We are an older couple celebrating a lot of years of marriage (and hiking) in Sri Lanka in February this year, for two weeks, and three days in the Maldives. Although we love to drive, we chose to go with a driver-guide, after planning the trip completely independently. (It turned out he might help us in the planning and selection of hotels, we own). The main advantage is reaching the sites, some of which are tired, refreshed after someone else used to bad roads, with bad signage - If you are i..." Sam

 "Cyril was our driver and guide for the last nine days. We had the comfortable white Toyota van shown in the pic - it was just as clean and shiny, and not a scratch on it. He is clearly a very skilled driver. He is particularly knowledgeable about the history of the many places we visited. We were pleased we had Cyril as our driver. He had been recommended to us by an acquaintance. Andrew Speirs Melbourne, Australia Travel period 04 Jan - 12 Jan 2018" Mr. Andrew an Mrs. Suzy Speirs from Australia
